Semantic Webs promise to revolutionize the way computers find and
integrate data over the internet. They will allow Web agents to share
and reuse data across applications, enterprises, and community
boundaries. However, this improved accessibility poses a greater threat
of unauthorized access, which could lead to the malicious corruption of
information. Building Trustworthy Semantic Webs addresses the urgent
demand for the development of effective mechanisms that will protect and
secure semantic Webs. Design Flexible Security Policies to Improve
Efficiency Securing semantic Webs involves the formation of policies
that will dictate what type of access Web agents are allowed. This text
provides the tools needed to engineer these policies and secure
individual components of the semantic Web, such as XML, RDF, and OWL. It
also examines how to control unauthorized inferences on the semantic
Web. Since this technology is not fully realized, the book emphasizes
the importanceof integrating security features into semantic Webs at the
onset of their development. Through its expansive coverage, Building
Trustworthy Semantic Webs describes how the creation of semantic
security standards will ensure the dependability of semantic Webs. It
provides Web developers with the tools they need to protect sensitive
information and guarantee the success of semantic Web applications.
